That extra damage will be turned into a variety of bonuses at the end of the battle, so it makes sense to take advantage of this mechanic as much as possible. Our recommendation is to use a Chain Attack as late as you can into the battle in order to extract the most bonuses possible.

Even if the enemy can be easily defeated using normal means, it is always worth it to activate a Chain Attack for an Overkill and the associated bonuses. If you wish to remove this mechanic from your gameplay experience, head into the Pause menu, and turn it off under the Systems > Options > Game tab.
